On another thread, there is reference to the blanket authorization letter for operating amateur-built aircraft from the US into Canada.
Restriction #3 says:
3. the nationality and registration marks assigned to the aircraft by the Federal Aviation Administration shall be
displayed on the aircraft in accordance with the requirements of the United States;
So this statement in the blanket authorization seems to imply that if the FAA-assigned registration marks on my airplane are 3" numbers, those would be OK. But I was under the impression that to fly into Canada, I had to put 12" numbers on.
There is also Restriction #8 which says:
8. the general operating and flight rules of the Canadian Aviation Regulations shall be complied with when
operating the aircraft in Canadian airspace;
So, it may be the case that the requirement for 12" numbers would fall under that clause?
While I'm at it, has there been any relief for visiting aircraft into Canada from the requirement for 406 mhz ELT?
